Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find the determinants of e-learning usage by teachers of vocational school in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta (DIY). This goal is achieved by describing the essence of influence of social environment and facilitating conditions toward the technology acceptance model (TAM) of e-learning. The essence of influence between variables is indicated by direct and indirect effect of social environment and facilitating conditions variables toward TAM variables of e-learning. This study is a correlational research study with ex-post facto approach, implemented in vocational schools in DIY. The population was teachers in public and private vocational schools in DIY who have e-learning training as many as 200 teachers. Sample size of 132 teachers is determined by the Krejcie & Morgan formula. The sample size of each district was distributed by proportional random sampling technique. The primary data source in this study was self-report of teachers, collected using a questionnaire with four alternative answers. Open interviews were conducted to support the primary data. The validity of measurements was carried out in two stages. Content validity was conducted by expert judgment and construct validity calculated by Pearson correlation. Reliability of the instrument was determined by the minimum value of Cronbach's Alpha of 0.70. Data analysis was performed using path analysis at a significance level of 0.05. The study concluded that social environment has a significant influence on usefulness and intention. The social environment and usefulness simultaneously and significantly effected the intention, but usefulness gives a more dominant effect. Facilitating conditions significantly influences ease of use and e-learning usage. Meanwhile, ease of use significantly influences the intention to use and usefulness. The facilitating conditions and intention simultaneously and significantly effected the e-learning usage, but the intention gives a more dominant effect. This relationship indicates that the effect of the social environment on e-learning usage is mediated by the usefulness and intention. Effect of facilitating conditions to e-learning usage is mediated by the ease of use, usefulness, and intention. These two paradigms of relationships confirm that the effect of social environment and facilitating conditions to e-learning usage are mediated by three main variables of TAM, namely usefulness, ease of use, and intention. Keywords:E-learning, technology acceptance model, social environment, facilitating condition.
